About this work

This print shows an old-time chorus line on stage. An impresario stands front and center, trying to pitch a show. The crowd looks bored—or worse. They’re already walking out. It’s a funny take on theater life in the early 1900s. The artist poked fun at fading glamour and harsh audience reactions. Check out more prints by Herbert Harris at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
